A WORD OF WARNING. 

There is a traij;-ic list of diseases which woman alone may suffer 
from. Men have their physical distresses, but a man is seldom called 
upon to endure anything so painful, so ling-ering and tenacious as these 
diseases to which woman is peculiarly subjected, and which are especially 
terrible, for the reason that most of them effect the mind as well as the 
body. 

They induce irritability, they destroy ambition, and they injure the 
memory. Ninety-nine out of a hundred women are afflicted with some of 
these complaints in a greater or less degree, and so used have they be- 
come to pain that they can hardly fancy mortal existence without it. 
Many of them are women of natural brilliancy, and their possibilities for 
usefulness would be very great if they were not handicapped by these 
tormenting troubles. 

Women have a way of taking their complaints too much as a matter 
of course. They say, "Every woman has some trouble, I suppose I ought 
not to complain." And they thus permit a disease to continue until it 
absorbs the muscular strength, impoverishes the blood, destroys the 
beauty, sucks up the mental activity, and leaves the victim a pessimistic, 
faded inadequate, with a hold upon the pity of those about her, but none 
upon their admiration. 

^/^he expense of calling for the treatment of a physician hinders many 
women from attending to themselves. They do not wish to be an ex- 
pense to their husbands or fathers, and conceal the suffering until they 
are almost beyond help. Many young women hesitate to go to a physician 
because of false modesty. Many have a foolish idea that they will get 
better after a little while. Tliis is a mistake. The relaxed muscles, the 
diseased nervous system, and the impoverished blood, are not likely to 
get back to their normal condition without aid. 

VIAVI is the name of a remedy which cures the diseases to which 
woman is subject. This statement may well be doubted in light of al- 
most complete failure with ordinary methods. Still, we maj' be right; 
women who have doctored for many years without success say we are. 
Others never were well until they used VIAVI. Nearly 100,000 women 
owe their recovery to VIAVI. 

Send two-cent stamp to the ofHce of the VIAVI Company. No. 815 The 
Cuyahoga, Cleveland, Ohio, for 40 page Health Book to Mothers and 
Daughters. A direct talk however, is more satisfying. Call during the 
office hours, (2 to 5 p. m.,) and learn what you may expect from this re- 
form method of treatment. 

Every woman bears a great responsibility. She must preserve her 
own health that she may give a heritage of health to her children. 
Therefore let her take her ailments in time. If she does not do so, bar- 
reness, insanity, or a life of terrible physical torment may be her 
portion. Remember disease is never the will of (rod. It does not happen. 
It is caused. Avoid the cause ; cure it if you can not.

PRFFACE. 

The price, "forty to eig"hty cents per pound," for P^rench 
Cream Cand}-, makes it a luxury seldom indulged in by people in 
ordinary circumstances, and the making- of them at home is so 
orten attended with failure, that when success does come, the 
cost, not counting worry and labor, is fully as much as when 
purchased at the confectioners ; and in almost every case the 
unsightliness of the candy is a source of disappointment. B3' 
our process no one need fear a failure in making Fruit Cream 
Candy or PVosting. The use of Cream gives to them a smooth- 
ness and richness atteiined by no other goods, while for purity 
and deliciousness of flavor the delicate Fruit Creams surpass all 
cooked Frostings or Candies. They are perfectly pure, a fact 
not to be overlooked, and can be made as beautiful, both in shape 
and color, as in any other manner. The cost of Fruit Creams 
"eight to fifteen cents per pound," is so low as to place them 
within the reach of all. j^he process of making is so simple 
none need go wrong, and the work is rather a pleasure than 
labor. 



UNCOOKED CANDIES. 



INSTRUCTIONS. 

Read the followinir instructions carefully unci you will not 
have the least trouble in making- beautiful c mdy from any of 
the recipes. 

The plain French Cream, or any of the Kruit Cream 
recipes, will make about one pound of candy. 

Cold boiled milk, with one teaspoon ful i^lycerine to cup of 
milk, will answer in place of cream. 



VARIETIES. 

An endless variety of candy can be made by moulding- with 
the ting-ers into different shapes, or pressed with the hand, or 
rolled with a rolling-pin into sheets and cut into square sticks, 
etc., or bv rolling- small balls; lay them on plates and press 
into buttons or small cakes. 

COLORS. 

It is not necessary to color any of the Fruit Creams, as the 
natural color is as fine as can be obtained artificially. Orang-e 
gives a handsome orang-e or yellow, peach a beautiful cream 
tint; red currant gives nice shade of pink, etc., etc. 

Colors can be obtained at any drug- store. 

Liquid Cochineal will give any shade from most delicate 
pink to deep red. 

Tincture Tumeric, a beautiful yellow. 

Burnt sug-ar or Caramel, any shade of brown. 

These, with the different shades of color from the fruits will 
g-ive a combination of colors to suit the most fastidious. 

Confectioners sug-ar must be used in making- all the Fruit 
Cream Candy and Icing-. It is purer than ordinary pulverized 
sug-ar, and can be obtained at an}- leading- g-rocery store.

SOUPS. 

BEEF SOUP. 

Cut all the lean off the shank, and vyith a little beef suet in 
the bottom of the kettle, fry it to a nice brown; put in the 
bones and cover with water; cover the kettle closely; let it 
cook slowly until the meat drops from the bones; strain 
through a colander and leave it in the dish during the night, 
which is the only way to get off all the fat. The day it is 
wanted for the table, fry as brown as possible a carrot, an 
onion, and a very small turnip sliced thin. Just before taking 
up, put in half a teaspoonful of sugar, a blade of mace, six 
cloves, a dozen kernels of allspice, a small teaspoonful of celery 
seed. With the vegetables this must cook slowly in the soup 
an h^ur; then strain again for the table. If you use vermicelli 
or pearl barley, soak in water. 

MUTTON SOUP. 

Boil a leg of mutton'three hours; season to your taste with 
salt and pepper, and add one teaspoonful of summer savory; 
make a batter of one egg, two tablespoons of milk, two table- 
spoons of flour, all well beaten together; drop this batter into 
the soup with a spoon and boil for three minutes. 

OYSTER SOUP. 

fake one quart of water; one teacup of butter; one pint of 
milk; two teaspoons of salt; four crackers rolled fine, and one 
teaspoon of pepper; bring to full boiling heat as soon as pos- 
sible, then add one quart of oysters; let the whole come to 
boiling heat quickly and remove from the fire. 

TOMATO SOUP. 

Boil chicken or beef four hours; then strain; add to the 
soup one can of tomatoes and boil one hour. This will make 
four quarts of soup.

FISH. 



TO BOIL FISH. 

Put a small onion inside your tish and tie it up in a towel, 
cover it with cold water, salt and a little vinegar, and let it 
heat to the boiling point; Irom two to three minutes boiling is 
sufficient for the largest fish, and a small one will not require 
more than one minute. Fish boiled in this wav is incompar- 
ably better than when cooked longer. 

A Suggestion. — Boiling salt water is best for salmon as 
it sets the color. 

BROILED WHITE FISH— FRESH. 

Wash and drain the fish; sprinkle with pepper and lay 
with the inside down upon the gridiron, and broil over fresh 
bright coals. When a nice brown, turn for a moment on the 
other side, then take up and spread with butter. This is a 
very nice way of broiling all kinds of fish, fresh or salted. A 
little smoke under the fish adds to its flavor. This may be 
made by putting two or three cobs under the gridiron. 

CROQUETTES OF FISH. 

Take dressed fish of any kind; separate from the bone, 
mince it with a little seasoning, an e^^r beaten with a teaspoon 
of flour and one of milk; roll into balls, brush the outside with 
egg and dredge well with bread and cracker crumbs, and fry 
them of a nice color. The bones, head, tail, an onion, an an- 
covy and a pint of water will make the gravy. 

PANNED OYSTERS. 

Drain the oysters from the liquor; put them in a hot pan 
or spider; as soon as they begin to curl, add butter, pepper 
and salt. Serve on toast, or without, if preferred. 

STEWED OVSTERS. 

In all cases, unless shell oysters, wash and drain; mix half 
a cup of butter and a tablespoon of corn starch; put with the 
oysters in a porcelain kettle; stir until they boil; add two cuds 
of cream or milk; salt to taste; do not use the liquor of the 
oysters in either stewing or escaloping.

POULTRY AND GAME. 



ROAST TURKEY OR CHICKEN. 

Having oicked and drawn the fowls, wash them well in 
two or three waters; wipe them dry; dredge them with a little 
flour inside and out, and a little pepper and salt; prepare a 
dressing of bread and cracker crumbs; till the bodies and crops 
of the fowls and then bake them from two to three hours; 
baste them frequently while roasting; stew the giblets in a 
sauce pan; just before serving, chop the giblets fine; after tak- 
ing up the chicken and the water in which the giblets were 
boiled, add the chopped giblets to the gravy of the roast fowl; 
thicken with a little flour, which has been previously wel with 
the water; boil up, and serve in a gravy dish. Roast chickens 
and turkey should be accompanied with celery and jellies. 

BAKED CHICKEN. 

Cut the fowls open and lay them flat in a pan, breaking 
down the breast and the back bones; dredge with flour and 
season well with salt and pepper, with bits of butter; put into 
a very hot oven until done, basting frequently with melted 
butler; or when half done take out the chicken and finish by 
broiling it upon a gridiron over bright coals; pour over it 
melted butter and the juices in the pan in which it was baked. 

FRIED CHICKEN. 

Cut the chicken in pieces, lay it in salt and water, which 
change several times; roll each piece in flour; fry in very hot 
lard or butter, season with salt and pepper; fry parsley with 
them also. Make a gravy of cream seasoned with salt, pepper 
and a little mace, thickened with a little flour in the pan in 
which the chickens were fried, pouring off the lard. 

CHICKEN PIE. 

Boil your chickens until they are tender and season 
highly, line deep pie plates with a rich crust, take the white 
meat and a little of the dark off from the bones, put into the 
pic plates, pour the gravy over the chicken, add butler and a 
little flour, cover with the crust, bake from half to three-quar- 
ters of an hour.

S.ALUST/G, '^°c°r--°«- 



7 HERE is a tragic list of diseases which women alone may suffer 
from. Men have their physical distresses, but a man is seldom 
called upon to endure anything so painful, so lingering, and 
so tenacious as these diseases to which woman is peculiarly subjected, 
and which are especially terrible, for the reason that most of them affect 
the mind as well as the body. 

They induce irritability, they destroy ambition, and they injure the 
memory. Ninety-nine out of a hundred women are afflicted with some 
of these complaints in a greater or less degree, and so used have they 
become to pain that they can hardly fancy mortal existence without it. 
Many of them are women of natural brilliancy, and their possibilities 
for usefulness would be very great if they were not handicapped by these 
tormenting troubles. 

Women have a way of taking their complaints too much as a mat- 
ter of course. They say: "Every woman has some trouble. I sup- 
pose I ought not to complain." And they thus permit a disease to con- 
tinue until it absorbs the muscular strength, impoverishes the blood, 
destroys the beauty, sucks up the mental activity, and leaves the victim 
a pessimistic, faded inadequate with a hold upon the pity of those 
about her, but none upon their admiration. 

The expense of calling for the treatment of a physician hinders 
many women from attending to themselves. They do not wish to be an 
expense to their husbands or fathers, and conceal the suffering until 
they are almost beyond help. Many young women hesitate to go to a 
physician because of false modesty. Many have a foolish idea 
that they will get better after a little while. This is a mistake. The 
relaxed muscles, the diseased nervous system and the impoverished 
blood are not likely to get back to their normal condition without aid. 

VIAVl is the name of a remedy which cures the diseases to which 
woman is subject. This statement may well be doubted in the light of 
almost complete failure with ordinary methods. Still, we may be right. 
Women who have doctored for many years without success say we are. 
Others never were well until they used VIAVI. Nearly 100,000 women 
owe their recovery to VIAVL 

Send 2-cent stamp to the office of the VIAVI CO., No. 11 West 
Ninth Street, Canton, Ohio, for a 40-page Health Book to Mothers 
and Daughters. A direct talk, however, is more satisfying. Call 
during the consultation days, Wednesday and Saturday afternoons, and 
learn what you may expect from this reform method of treatment. 

Every woman bears a great responsibility. She must preserve her 
own health that she may give a heritage of health to her children. 
Therefore, let her take her ailments in time. If she does not do so, 
barrenness, insanity, or a life of terrible physical torment may be her 
portion. Remember disease is never the will of God. It does not 
happen. It is caused. Avoid the cause if you can; cure it if you can 
not.

MEATS. 



ROAST BEEF. 

Prepare for the oven by dredging lightly with flour, and 
seasoning with salt and pepper; place in the oven, and baste 
frequently while roasting. Allow a quarter of an hour for a 
pound of meat, if you like it rare; longer if you like it well 
done. Serve with a sauce, made from the drippings in the 
pan, to which has been added a tablespoon of Harvey or Wor- 
cestershire sauce, and a tablespoon of tomato catsup. Thicken 
with browned flour and serve in a gravy boat. 

MEAT FROM SOUP BONES. 

Before thickening the soup or putting in the vegetables, 
take out a large bowl of the liquor; take the meat from the 
bones, chop it fine, season with catsup and spices; pour over 
the liquor, which should be thick enough to jelly when cold; 
put into moulds and serve cold in slices. 

TO BOIL CORNED BEEF. 

Put the meat in cold water; boil from five to six hours, 
then take out the bones; wrap it tightly in a towel; put on ice 
with a weight to press it. 

BOILED TONGUE WITH TOMATO SAUCE. 
Half boil a tongue, then stewit with a sauce made of a 
little broth, flour, parsley, one small onion, one small carrot, 
salt and pepper, and one can of tomatoes cooked and strained. 
Lay the tongue on a dish and strain the sauce over it. 

BOILED LEG OF MUTTON. 

Boil well in clear water until tender, seasoning the water 
with salt; serve with egg sauce, and garnish with parsley, 
sliced lemons, or some sour jelly.

PIES. 



LEMON PIE. 

The rind and juice of one lemon, one cup sugar, the yelk 
of three eggs; mix these well together; two cups of milk, a 
little salt, one tablespoon corn starch; thicken the milk with 
the corn starch and let it come to a boil, then stir it into the 
other ingredients, pour it into a pie plate covered with a good 
paste and bake it Beat the whites of three eggs to a froth, 
with a tablespoon of sugar, lay it over the top of the pie and 
set it again in the oven for a few seconds to brown. 

MINCE MEAT. 

Two pounds of raisins, one of currants, one of suet, two 
and one-half of sugar, one-quarter of citron, one-eighth of cin- 
namon, two chopped pippins, three lemons, two nutmegs, wine, 
brandy and cloves to taste. 

CUSTARD PIE. 

Make a custard of the yelks of three eggs with milk, sea- 
son to taste; bake it in ordinary crust; put it in a brick oven, 
that the crust may not be heavy, and as soon as that is heated 
remove it to a place in the oven of a more moderate heat, 
that the custard may bake slowly and not curdle; when done, 
beat the whites to a froth; add sugar and spread over the top, 
and return to the oven to brown slightly; small pinch of salt 
added to a custard heightens the flavor; a little soda in the 
crust prevents it from being heavy.

HEALTH ESSENTIAL TO HAPPINESS. 

^IIERE is no degree of beauty, intelligence or amiability which 
can compensate for a diseased body in woman. Indeed, there 
is no beauty, intelligence or amiability which bad health will 
not undermine. Neither wealth, position nor opi)ortunity can com- 
pensate for the absence of health; and the conscientious woman has 
other reasons than selfish ones, for feeling bad health to be the greatest 
of misfortunes. She knows that she cannot be ill without casting a 
shadow over the home that she would, if she could, keep always bright. 
If she has children, she will not only find herself incapacitated for giving 
them the mental and moral training they need, but she may not even be 
able to hold their admiration; and the chances are ten to one that she 
has given them a hideous heritage of disease. She may well be haunt- 
ed with the fear that the day will come when they will think of her with 
contempt, for being willing to bring into the world children who can 
not escape from the destiny of suffering which her enfeebled constitu- 
tion bequeathed them. She may well apprehend that the time will come 
when her husband will weary of coming home to the dim room where 
the invalid wife is always ailing, and go elsewhere, that he may find the 
high spirits, the physical vigor, and the entertaining vivacity which he 
is never able to get in his own home. 

In short, however guiltless a woman may be, she cannot but feel 
that she, a chronic invalid, is »iaily damaging the lives of those she loves 
best, and that each day which prolongs her painful and wasted life, is 
a misfortune rather than a blessing. 

Yet, the time never really comes when a woman with anything to 
live for, is ready to relinquish life, no matter how acute her physical 
sufferings or how terrible her mental torment. 

VIAVI is the name of a remedy which cures the diseases to which 
woman is subject. This statement may well be doubted in light of 
almost complete failure with ordinary methods. Still, we may be right. 
Women who have doctored for many years without success, say we are. 
Others never were well until they used VIAVI. Nearly 100,000 wo- 
men owe their recovery to VIAVI. 

Send 2 cent stamp to the office of the VIAVI CO., No. 309 "The 
Nasby," Toledo, Ohio, for 40-page Health Book to Mothers and 
Daughters. A direct talk, however, is more satisfying. Call during the 
ofifice hours (i to 6 p. m.) and learn what you may expect from this re- 
form method of treatment. 

Every woman bears a great responsibility. She must preserve her 
own health that she may give a heritage of health to her children. 
Therefore, let her take her ailments in time. If she does not do so, 
barrenness, insanity, or a life of terrible physical torment may be her 
portion. Remember, disease is never the will of God. It does not 
happen. It is caused. Avoid the cause if you can; cure it if you can 
not. (copyrighted.)
